The Front Bottoms Flashlight song lyrics

Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you

And hang them in my room

So, when I wake up, be like,

'Yea, everything's alright'

You are still here, you are still happy,

You are still smiling and laughing,

You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life

And it goes in, in, out through the mouth

Breathing exercises I will never figure out

'Til I am running in circles,

(I am) Or, walking in circles

(I am) Or, crawling in circles

(I) Or, lying on the ground

And I can hear your dog whistle

From my bedroom

Yea, yea

(I can see a flashlight) And I can see a flashlight cutting

Up the trees behind my house

Yea, yea,

Yea, yea, yea

She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless

Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people,

If not everyday, then on an every-other-day basis

And she's probably with a few of them right now

And they are probably just drinking and talking about

How she misses getting fucked up and hanging around

And he says, "Hey you're good at that." And she says, "Thanks,

It's kind of all I got."

And then she looks away and says, "It's also all I need."

And I can smell plastic burning,

I can smell chemicals breaking down

I got your last three e-mails, the ones where you said,

"I was sorting some things out."

And he will be able to hear her dog whistle

From his bedroom

Yea, yea

(I can see a flashlight) And I can see a flashlight cutting

Up the trees behind my house

Yea, yea

And I will read the flashing like a morse code explanation

That will mean nothing but take all night to figure out

Out, out

(Please fall asleep so I can take pictures) When I am sad, I am sad

(Of you and hang them in my room) But when I am happy, oh, God, I'm happy

(So, when I wake up, be like, 'Yea, everything's alright') And there's just no place in between for us to meet

(You are still here, you are still happy) When I am sad, I am sad,

(You are still smiling and laughing) But when I am happy, oh, God, I'm happy

(You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life) And there's just no place in between for us to meet

(Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you) When I am sad, oh, God I'm sad

(And hang them in my room) But when I'm happy, I am happy

(So, when I wake up, be like, 'Yea, everything's alright) And there's just no place in between for us to meet

(You are still here, you are still happy) When I am sad, oh, God I'm sad

(You are still smiling and laughing) But when I'm happy, I am happy

(You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life) And there's just no place in between for us to meet

(Sad)
